The network location could not be reached.

win 2003 server in a workgroup.

I cannot access anything via Start, Run nor can i map a drive without getting this error message.

I am also attempting to add this server to the domain and i get the same message.

The server has full connectivity and can ping other devices. I can access the internet and run apps off off it but i cannot access any network share or resource via the run box or map a drive.

This is so importannt since i need for this server to see an image pool on a san and i can no longer access the share. It is not just this share but any share for that matter.

Any ideas?

double-check and triple-check that you have all the proper network settings on that server. Then try to add it to the domain again. Be sure to flush the DNS cache too.

i checked everything and it is as it should be. i also flushed the dns cache for good measure. i have also restarted it multiple times.
It looks like some type of routing or netbios issue but i cant figure it out.
